Feature 1: A Button that is shown in an open feed item/message. It
should show the current flag status of the item and change it when
clicked upon. My suggested position would be right of the "Open News
Item" button.

Reason: I'm usually reading feeds continuously and am not always
certain, whether I already flagged a message or not. A visual indication
allowing to change this status would be a nice addition. Besides "tap
and hold" isn't always easy when operating without the pen/pointer.

Feature 2:
An option to cache the online message of flagged items. This might
either cache all flagged items of all feeds or just the current one.

Reason: I'm currently unable to read flagged messages online (subway
doesn't have GSM coverage) so I'd like to have a way to get the online
content cached onto my device, but only when I'm especially interested
in the item.

Does anyone second these ideas?

On a side note: I'd love to know whether my plea for an option to turn
off the sequential reading feature ("Up/Down arrow moves to the
previous/next message in sequential reading") is being considered.
